Vibration monitoring sensor has M12 connector
Variohm EuroSensor has added three new vibration sensors with industry standard M12 connectors from its USA distribution partner Meggitt Wilcoxon Research. Aimed at vibration monitoring for preventative maintenance on motors, pumps and other rotating equipment, the new general purpose accelerometers are based upon tried and tested 786A and 787A piezoelectric accelerometers but now include the universal 4- and 5-pin M12 connector system which is commonly used across food, beverage, pharmaceutical and many other process industries.
The range covers three 100mV/g sensors with either 5% or 10% sensitivity tolerance and an acceleration range up to 80g. Hermetically sealed and corrosion resistant with a fused glass to metal connector and all welded construction, the durable sensor has a temperature range of -50 to +120°C and the compact design mounts in any direction with a choice of M6, M8 or 1/4-28 captive screw or M8 stud mounting.
Variohm can also supply a wide range IP67 and IP68 rated assemblies with 4- or 5-pin connectors from Meggitt Wilcoxon Research to further simplify installation.
